Resumo: This paper seeks to investigate the social identities connected to English in Brazil by connecting these to linguistic ideologies, and reflecting on how they may be challenged. It is based on first-person narration of “critical moments” from the perspective of an English language “native speaker” migrant to Brazil. The reflections identify how race is intimately connected to the “native speaker” category, theorised through the notions of “racial acceptability” and “racial capital”, drawing on a Bourdieusian theoretical framework. The article concludes with examples of challenges to the “native speaker” model in the hybrid linguistic practices of Brazilian youth.--- DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.22409/gragoata.2017n42a894---Original in English.

Baseia-se na narração em primeira pessoa de "momentos críticos" na perspectiva de um migrante "falante nativo" de língua inglesa para o Brasil. As reflexões identificam como a raça está intimamente ligada à categoria "falante nativo", teorizada através das noções de "aceitabilidade racial" e "capital racial", desenhando-se em uma perspectiva teórica de Bourdieu. O artigo conclui com exemplos de desafios ao modelo de "falante nativo" nas práticas linguísticas híbridas da juventude brasileira.---DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.22409/gragoata.2017n42a894---Artigo em inglês.Universidade Federal Fluminense2017-07-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/3347710.22409/gragoata.v22i42.33477Gragoatá; Vol. 22 No. 42 (2017): Immigration, language practices and language policies; 370-392Gragoatá; v. 22 n. 42 (2017): Imigração, práticas de linguagem e políticas linguísticas; 370-3922358-41141413-907310.22409/gragoata.v22i42reponame:Gragoatáinstname:Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)instacron:UFFenghttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/article/view/33477/19464Copyright (c) 2017 Gragoatáinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessWindle, Joel Austin2019-08-23T11:09:59Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/33477Revistahttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoataPUBhttps://periodicos.uff.br/gragoata/oai||revistagragoata@gmail.com2358-41141413-9073opendoar:2019-08-23T11:09:59Gragoatá - Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF)false
